An experiment designed to study the relationship between hypertension and cigarette smoking yielded the following data.
Test the hypothesis that whether or not an individual has hypertension is independent of how much that person smokes.
The article “Anodic Fenton Treatment of Treflan MTF” describes a two-factor experiment designed to study the sorption of the herbicide trifluralin. The factors are the initial trifluralin concentration and the \(\displaystyle{F}{e}^{{{2}}}\ :\ {H}_{{{2}}}\ {O}_{{{2}}}\) delivery ratio. There were three replications for each treatment. The results presented in the following table are consistent with the means and standard deviations reported in the article. \(\begin{array}{|c|c|}\hline \text{Initial Concentration (M)} & \text{Delivery Ratio} & \text{Sorption (%)} \\ \hline 15 & 1:0 & 10.90 \quad 8.47 \quad 12.43 \\ \hline 15 & 1:1 & 3.33 \quad 2.40 \quad 2.67 \\ \hline 15 & 1:5 & 0.79 \quad 0.76 \quad 0.84 \\ \hline 15 & 1:10 & 0.54 \quad 0.69 \quad 0.57 \\ \hline 40 & 1:0 & 6.84 \quad 7.68 \quad 6.79 \\ \hline 40 & 1:1 & 1.72 \quad 1.55 \quad 1.82 \\ \hline 40 & 1:5 & 0.68 \quad 0.83 \quad 0.89 \\ \hline 40 & 1:10 & 0.58 \quad 1.13 \quad 1.28 \\ \hline 100 & 1:0 & 6.61 \quad 6.66 \quad 7.43 \\ \hline 100 & 1:1 & 1.25 \quad 1.46 \quad 1.49 \\ \hline 100 & 1:5 & 1.17 \quad 1.27 \quad 1.16 \\ \hline 100 & 1:10 & 0.93 \quad 0.67 \quad 0.80\\ \hline \end{array}\) a) Estimate all main effects and interactions. b) Construct an ANOVA table. You may give ranges for the P-values. c) Is the additive model plausible? Provide the value of the test statistic, its null distribution, and the P-value.
